I think I understand the issue, which is not related to upstream bug 489187 (cited in description) now, since it's been fixed properly. The problem may come from liboobs that removes users it doesn't know about (see new upstream report).
I can hardly see how using PolicyKit instead of 'sudo users-admin' would change anything. James, con you confirm you're starting users-admin the right way, i.e. from the menus or with 'users-admin'? ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Medium ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Triaged ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Assignee: Basilio Kublik (sourcercito) => (unassigned) ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #608815 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608815 ** Also affects: gst via https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608815 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Summary changed: - users-admin deletes privileges granted to ADS domain users with the command line utility (adduser) + users-admin removes from groups users not in /etc/passwd (ADS, LDAP) -- users-admin removes from groups users not in /etc/passwd (ADS, LDAP) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164475 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
